Along with Madonna, Beyonce, and Cher, Zendaya is a single-named celebrity who is equally well-known for her red carpet skills and body of work.

With 13 years in the profession, the 26-year-old American actress and singer has had plenty of time to develop her image.

Zendaya Coleman, the star of Euphoria and Dune, made her television debut in the 2010 Disney Channel comedy Shake It Up.

The actress made the transition to the big screen in 2017’s Spider-Man: Homecoming and has since acted in Spider-Man: Far from Home and Spider-Man: No Way Home with Tom Holland. She also competed on Dancing with the Stars and starred in the sitcom KC Undercover.

Her style has evolved along with her profession.

As she transitioned from a Disney star to a leading lady, Zendaya, who has won two Primetime Emmy Awards for her work in the HBO drama Euphoria, has improved her red carpet style.

The actress, who often wears pieces by Roberto Cavalli, Valentino, and Tom Ford, never shies away from a statement pattern, an avant-garde style, or brilliant colours, and can always be counted on to lend a little glitz to a party, premiere, or awards ceremony.

She is renowned for leaning to the past for red carpet inspiration and frequently choosing historical attire. She dazzled with a vintage Versace gown from the 2002 spring couture line for the 54th NAACP Image Awards in black and neon green. She donned sparkling Bulgari jewelry and had her hair styled by fashion designer Law Roach in the free waves that were popular in Hollywood during the golden age. Later that night, she changed into a white two-piece Prada outfit from the spring/summer 1993 line.

She frequently accessorizes her statement gowns with sparkling jewelry, frequently created by Bulgari, for whom she appeared in a 2022 campaign alongside Anne Hathaway and Priyanka Chopra Jonas.

Here, we examine Zendaya’s style development over the course of her career in the public eye.
